Age range 2+ Here is a strikingly different and original first-concept book. In rhyming or alliterative pairs, Jibber-Jabber presents the onomatopoeic sounds of 14 animals that will be easily identifiable to young learners. The name of each creature appears below its signature sound to further reinforce the connection and provides another way to read the text - as a series of commands (Squeak mouse, Squawk parrot, and so on). Quirky linocut illustrations accompany the block-letter type, engaging visual as well as auditory senses throughout.
